Second pregnancy, sixth child: The beloved mom's disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 125 Old Madam Wen's Appearance Gradually Changes

After leaving the Wen Group company, Wen Tingye drove Ning Yao to the old mansion.

The old mansion still has pavilions and towers, so magnificent that it's astonishing.

Grandpa Wen was not there; only Grandma Wen and the children were resting in the courtyard.

Upon seeing Wen Tingye lead Ning Yao into the room, Old Madam Wen was somewhat displeased. Regardless of whether Ning Yao was present or not, she frowned and asked, "What happened in the morning's report? It's one thing if you don't acknowledge Jiao Rui as your fiancée, but to publicly acknowledge Miss Ning as your girlfriend, did you even ask for my and your father's opinion?"

"Your marriage, Wen Tingye, is none of anyone else's business. Are your father and I considered 'anyone else'?"

These words are not seen in the news; they were relayed to her by Lian Jiaorui.

Wen Tingye was truly bewitched by this wild woman, and actually uttered such rebellious words.

Ning Yao hasn't even married into the family yet, and she's already stirred up trouble between her and her son. If she were to marry into the family as she wishes, what would become of them?

Wen Tingye silently squeezed Ning Yao's hand, signaling her not to be nervous, then looked up at his mother and replied in a deep voice, "As you can see."

Madam Wen was angered by her son's words, and her face turned extremely ugly, but she couldn't lash out in front of Ning Yao.

Old Master Wen had instructed her that Ning Yao was a benefactor of the Wen family and that she should not be disrespectful.

Madam Wen believed she had been good enough to Ning Yao. She had never said anything harsh to her, but she didn't want Ning Yao to get too close to her son. Even though Ning Yao was the biological mother of her two grandsons, the children were of the Wen family bloodline, having only passed through Ning Yao's womb.

She has never fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother, so what gives her the right to call herself the child's mother?

Since returning to China, Ning Yao has caused all sorts of trouble, big and small, and hasn't had a single day of peace. Recently, she even learned about her sister's engagement banquet from Lian Jiaorui.

Ning Yao personally sent her own father to prison; how cruel must she be?

They've been living together as a family for over a decade. What deep-seated hatred could they possibly have that would drive them to the brink of death?

She would never allow such a cold-blooded monster, who didn't even recognize his own family, to enter the Wen family's gate!

"Ai Xiu Bao Ying is in the backyard. I'll have a maid take you there." Wen Tingye gently ruffled Ning Yao's hair with an affectionate gesture. He then called a maid to lead Ning Yao out of the hall, preventing her from facing her mother any longer.

Ning Yao was happy to be free. She really didn't want to face Old Madam Wen, so she immediately left with the servants to find the child.

Madam Wen didn't stop her; she also had something to say to her son.

After Ning Yao left, Old Madam Wen and Wen Tingye sat and stood facing each other for a long time.

"Tingye, I know you feel sorry for your two children who have no mother and want your family to be reunited, but Ningyao is not a good match for you. You need to be more clear-headed and not let a few sweet words bewitch your mind," Old Madam Wen earnestly advised.

"That's what I wanted to say to you too," Wen Tingye replied, raising an eyebrow as he sat down on the sofa opposite Madam Wen.

"What do you mean by that?" Old Madam Wen asked, frowning as she looked at her son, displeased.

Wen Tingye picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and explained slowly, "You've been too well protected by your father all these years. You don't know the dangers of the outside world. Information from others isn't always objective. It's best to see for yourself and experience it firsthand."

Madam Wen was surprised that her son would say such a thing. She was about to retort, but she swallowed her words after glancing at her son's cold expression.

She didn't want to have a falling out with her son, and she wanted to hear just how much her son cared about this woman.

"Back then, Father went against all odds and went through a lot of trouble to marry you into the Wen family. Your backgrounds weren't exactly a good match either. For your sake, Father stood in the rain for more than half a month, braving wind and rain, before finally getting Grandma's heart to soften and agree to the marriage."

"Similarly, I can stand in the old Wen family mansion for Ning Yao and wait for your permission. If you are not willing, I will stand there until I die."

As Wen Tingye spoke, he put down his teacup, crossed his legs, and looked serious and earnest, without a hint of joking.

Madam Wen was shocked by Wen Tingye's words, and her eyes trembled.

Her son was actually so deeply in love with Ning Yao?

"Of course I can disregard your opinions and marry Ning Yao directly to make her the young mistress of the Wen family. You know I'm capable of doing it. With my current strength, you and Father absolutely cannot do anything to me. I am not the young master of the Wen family, but Wen Tingye."

Wen Tingye's thin lips parted slightly as he spoke the most unrestrained words in the most indifferent tone.

Madam Wen frowned. Of course, she knew that her son had the ability to leave the Wen family and make a name for himself.

Wen Tingye was intelligent and talented from a young age. Indeed, even without the Wen family as his backing, he would not be an ordinary person. He could have built his own family and become a powerful figure like his ancestors.

“But I didn’t do that, not only because I respect your and Father’s opinions, but also because I respect Ning Yao. I hope she can marry me, Wen Tingye, with dignity, and be sent into the hall for the wedding with smiles and blessings from the elders.”

“I respect you and Father, and I hope you can respect my choice and accept the woman I love.”

“I hope you can understand that the woman I, Wen Tingye, like doesn’t need to please anyone. She only needs to make herself happy. I will never force her to be filial to you and my father, because she is not your and my father’s daughter. The label that is engraved on her will always be just my wife, Wen Tingye, nothing more.”

Wen Tingye put his leg down, stood up expressionlessly, and glanced at the old lady Wen, whose expression was complicated.

"I've said everything I wanted to say. Please take your time to consider it."

Madam Wen was stunned by Wen Tingye's words, and she remained petrified until he left the hall.

Every word Wen Tingye spoke carried absolute authority. Old Madam Wen knew that her son always kept his word. He said he would stand in the mansion to beg for Ning Yao's and the old man's consent, and he would stand there until he died.

A maid entered carrying an exquisite food basket and respectfully said to Madam Wen, "Madam, this is peach gum and bird's nest soup that the young master brought for you. It's still warm. Would you like to eat it now?"

Madam Wen was taken aback, remembering the bird's nest soup she loved most...

She eats two bowls every week. That forgetful old man forgets about her needing bird's nest when he gets busy, but her son always remembers and brings her peach gum bird's nest from the famous Dicheng Restaurant every time he visits her.

Tingye is still filial and cares about his mother. Perhaps she was just too harsh on Ningyao.

Madam Wen looked helplessly at the peach gum and bird's nest cup in front of her, her hand holding the spoon paused slightly, and she sighed softly.

Fine, she won't interfere in her son's marriage.
